Yes, I learn much better when the audio randomly becomes super loud for less than a second & goes back to normal..Especially learn the best whenever he says anything with a 'b' or a 'p' sound & it explodes a deep thunderous 'puff' sound.
For anyone wondering , this is UPC-A barcode generation algorithm . There are many others , for example "Code 128" barcode generation algorithm is capable of encoding alphanumeric characters from ASCII character set.
I showed a photo of a paint can with a small bar code on it to an employee who scanned the screen and instantly brought up the same product on his phone. I work in a pretty tech industry and it's pretty cool that such a simple design works so well
Easily one of THE most informative videos per minute that I've seen! I learned more about bar codes in four minutes than I did in seventeen years in the grocery biz! Thanks!
I might have missed it, but I think you forgot to mention that the numbers on the right side are inverted to those on the left (0 becomes 1 and vice versa). Zero on left: 0001101; Zero on right 1110010
Thats crazy the 0 and 1 light reflection was exactly the opposite of what I was thinking and this is all interesting. Definitely gonna dive deeper into this.
It's funny, me and my dad were having a conversation about this when I was visiting him, and by chance I saw this video about 40 minutes before he phones, thanks a lot for the upload, this is a great channel.
In the case of the barcode, the binaries are just a standard, not the binary equivalent for the decimal number. To convert a binary number to a decimal number you can use this: For example, converting 10101010 into decimal, 1*2^7+0*2^6+1*2^5+0*2^4+1*2^3+0*2^2+1*2^1+0*2^0 So the binary 10101010 is equivalent to the decimal 170. Maybe this can help you: watch?v=Fmb3TCvlETk
Interestingly, I've noticed no one has pointed out that the right side's number codes are just the inverse of the left side's. Example: Left side 1: 0011001 Right side 1: 1100110

Love the way you have explained how barcode works. But how does one know exactly which manufacturer and product has which code? Is there an administered international database that we have to register into? Provided that there is no administered database, can anyone generate their own EAN barcodes for free, with their favorite numbers as manufacturer and product code?
@boombasticLee If you are attempting to calculate a 13th digit, then you are creating a symbology known as EAN13 (looks similar to UPC). In this particular example, UPCa takes 11 digits and produces a 12th (check digit).
QUESTION! ---- I'd really LOVE TO KNOW the extent of what a barcode can tell me --- I work in a warehouse & I've been told that the first 3 numbers tell you the country it was made in (true or not?), you mentioned the first digit showing standard or weighted things; what about 4 through 9? & do you know of a link or any reading material anywhere for me to look through? I've been looking on the web for ages but this video has told me more then all the other research I've done. Thank you!
The people who figured out this complicated system, what planet are they from? Whew! Excellent job with the video but I have to go now as my brain is now full! Best of luck!
Use Excel data to print bulk barcode labels - In order to improve work efficiency, you can first enter the value of the barcode in Excel, and then import it into our barcode generator software to make barcodes in batches.
Yep, but a computer does all that idying in a gazillionth of a second, so once the method is programmed with all it's triple security checks, the machine will do it for you at practically no cost and no time...

That is only one of barcode types commonly used around, the EAN-13. Probably it is the most common one in Europe but even there it is not the only one. Americas have their own similar but not identical ways of doing the same thing. And that is only considering simple linear barcodes. Today 2D barcodes start to gain popularity especially in specific cases like airplane tickets and interactive ads. The video just barely scratches the surface of the whole barcode universe.
Especially if you are looking at the much compressed versions that define most of the equations by employing operators such as the gradient, divergence, curl or del operators. Then you have to look all of those up and learn that the bolded letters are actually Vector potentials or Vector fields, and how those function. Then you learn partial derivatives and cross and dot products. By then you will have just scratched the surface. Math, helping the universe confuse us.
Did they come up with the codes on the left side and then inverted them to get those on the right or are the codes on the left side an inversion of the codes on the right?
The left and right guards only contains three bits "101" and both the left-side and right side code for the number six contain 7-bits, "0101111" and "1010000" respectively. Since "101" is not the same as "0101111" or "1010000" there is no 666. In the UPC code you must have all seven bits for a number to be recognized. Even if you treated "101" as a plain old binary number, it would be a five and not six. FYI, six looks like "110" in plain binary, and 666 would look like "1010011010".
BokanProductions To answer the question for anyone curious 2 years later here, the code will continue to be allocated to the product for awhile even after discontinuation ad many stores will still be selling the item for awhile, and many suppliers will still have leftover product for awhile. But in the long run yes it will eventually be recycled.

Perfect comment! If only they were!
Yes this channel is best

Finally! Now I can get rid of my POS system and read the bar codes myself!
ConnecticutEmporium Point of sale or piece of shit?
mxm m both, i guess
LOL I know this is a joke but you’d also have to memorize all of the manufacturing codes and the product numbers.
Finally! I know all the steps to shoplift!

Way above my comprehension abilities. I got lost about a minute in and then my mind wanders about something I can comprehend.
Wow, this was a great video. Very interesting and informative. Now I have a great conversation piece to break the awkward silence on a first date.
Lmao awesome
You're going to bore a date to death on the first date???
....and the last......😴
Hey girl wanna learn about barcodes lmao!! that would def be an ice breaker kinda funny too
HAHAHA

Your voice should be on TV. Even when you say chicken soup it's interesting.
Walmart Employer: "So... what's a skill you have?"
Me: "I can understand barcodes."
🤣
LOL
hahahaha
These type of videos are what I always wanted! I wish the internet was more populated with this type of stuff. LOVE IT. KEEP MAKING MORE! And thanks.
This cashier is grateful for the lesson!
Tobie Allen II same lmao
Concise and straight to the point! Thank you for making us learn and saving our time.
my scanner works on my phone, at least, and it really is Campbells Chicken Noodle soup. $1.29 apparently.
+dukestt What a deal!
dukestt. I saw that dude i was at Wal-Mart when I saw that
🤣😂🤣
I might have missed it, but I think you forgot to mention that the numbers on the right side are inverted to those on the left (0 becomes 1 and vice versa). Zero on left: 0001101; Zero on right 1110010
It's important to note that this is a UPC, there are many types of barcodes and they work differently than UPCs
The most articulate explanation you can ever get in this world... Well done for Excellent videos.
Thats crazy the 0 and 1 light reflection was exactly the opposite of what I was thinking and this is all interesting. Definitely gonna dive deeper into this.
Absolutely fantastic! You make it seem so simple!
Very nicely done. I only wanted to know the basics of barcodes before I present a proposal to a company and it is well explained.
Very nice and comprehensive way of giving a lesson. Thanks A LOT!
It's funny, me and my dad were having a conversation about this when I was visiting him, and by chance I saw this video about 40 minutes before he phones, thanks a lot for the upload, this is a great channel.
I'll never see barcodes the same way ever again. Thank you!
The people that came up with this were way ahead of their time.
It's unbelievable that all that happens in just one second when I beep my product in a store :0
i feel less dumb.
Same here;)
very clear, short, yet enough info to understand barcode system. Great!
In the case of the barcode, the binaries are just a standard, not the binary equivalent for the decimal number.
To convert a binary number to a decimal number you can use this:
For example, converting 10101010 into decimal,
1*2^7+0*2^6+1*2^5+0*2^4+1*2^3+0*2^2+1*2^1+0*2^0
So the binary 10101010 is equivalent to the decimal 170.
Maybe this can help you: watch?v=Fmb3TCvlETk
Amazing, I learnt this is 5 mins. Wow, great informative video.
Interestingly, I've noticed no one has pointed out that the right side's number codes are just the inverse of the left side's.
Example:
Left side 1: 0011001
Right side 1: 1100110
This is very useful lesson for me. Thanks to you I have made a project at my university!
Magnificent video tutorial. Very clear voice and wonderful illustrations. Thanks a lot :-) Subscribed.
i work in a warehouse and im super glad to finally understand this
every answer to every question I had about barcodes right here!! thanx really helpful!!!
THEPROGOLDLION hey lol
Thanks a lot for such a brilliant lecture just in one lesson. Thanks again.
You are really amazing
You did this just in 4 minutes
Thank you
Thanks a lot because i have a presentation tomorrow on this topic.
:( i wanted him to go into the tracking of items, very informative though! thanks!
Very good course to quickly understand how bar codes work.
Up to now, i’ve come to know how barcodes work. Really interesting information.
Very elegant and clear presentation, thanks!!!
FABULOUS video!!!! Bravo. Request: Can you do a similar video for 2D Barcodes/QRCodes?
WOW!! I feel so enlightened!
Holy crap. That was way more than I could have imagined.
Great job sir,thanks

that was awesome! exactly what i was looking for for the last 2 hrs! thanks for breaking it down for us!!
I'm replying to a 9 year old comment.XD
Great explanation. Why the channel stopped producing this type of videos?
Moooore video plz. This chanel could be in the top 10 edu channels on youtube!

@n40798
Yes, it is UPCA. UPCE takes in the same amount of data but produces an 8 digit barcode.
Thank you for this lesson. Can you share the presentation you used?
This really helped me in my college math class. Thank you! :)
how
Most efficient video on youtube
QUESTION! ---- I'd really LOVE TO KNOW the extent of what a barcode can tell me --- I work in a warehouse & I've been told that the first 3 numbers tell you the country it was made in (true or not?), you mentioned the first digit showing standard or weighted things; what about 4 through 9? & do you know of a link or any reading material anywhere for me to look through? I've been looking on the web for ages but this video has told me more then all the other research I've done. Thank you!
Omg this is mindblown for me. Thank you very much! Old but gold video.
This small video has everything and it was really easy to understand 😃
I can now read barcodes without a scanner, thanks!
"do you know how barcodes work?"
that would be a cool opener for that cute cashier :) LOL
I'm sure that cute cashier is on hour six of her shift and gives two fucks about how a bar code works lmao
I understood everything until the modulo check number and then I was like, "Yeah, I'll never be able to explain this to anyone..."
The people who figured out this complicated system, what planet are they from? Whew! Excellent job with the video but I have to go now as my brain is now full! Best of luck!
The first 3 digits actually indicates the Country of Origin.
My TaoHorse barcode scanner works great for 1D/2D barcodes, iPhone, PC, etc., finally know what happens, thanks:)
You are one damn good teacher man
Which program did you use to create this video ?
I need to do something similar for school and this would be exactly what I need....
Thank you, very informative. I half expected this to be one of those religious nut videos.
that was freaking awesome
Very informative! Thanks a lot!

This is one heck of a complicated way for identifying a product. We should make things more simple.
Yep, but a computer does all that idying in a gazillionth of a second, so once the method is programmed with all it's triple security checks, the machine will do it for you at practically no cost and no time...

That's help me understand and make my own DIY Barcode with MS-Excel, Thank you.
Very well explained; thanks for sharing!
how do you calculate for 13 digit barcode digits ?
Damn technology. You're smart.
How does anyone know this?🤔🤣
Do we have to feed the manufacture and product codes in computer first?
Did they come up with the codes on the left side and then inverted them to get those on the right or are the codes on the left side an inversion of the codes on the right?
Thanks 🙏🏻
Quick and easy. Thanks
Did you mention about the Absorption Lines?
Great source of information , in hardly 5 minutes
The left and right guards only contains three bits "101" and both the left-side and right side code for the number six contain 7-bits, "0101111" and "1010000" respectively. Since "101" is not the same as "0101111" or "1010000" there is no 666. In the UPC code you must have all seven bits for a number to be recognized. Even if you treated "101" as a plain old binary number, it would be a five and not six. FYI, six looks like "110" in plain binary, and 666 would look like "1010011010".
Finally a video that answers my shower thought about a barcode knowing if it is upside down. Thanks lol
When a product is discontinued do they reuse that product's barcode for a different product? I mean it's not like it's ever going to be used again.
BokanProductions To answer the question for anyone curious 2 years later here, the code will continue to be allocated to the product for awhile even after discontinuation ad many stores will still be selling the item for awhile, and many suppliers will still have leftover product for awhile. But in the long run yes it will eventually be recycled.

Thankyou so much for this amazing explanation :)
Thanks this lesson helped me alot.
AWSOME !!! very very nice explainde!! keep it up man!!!
Is it possible to know the price of the thing that has this barcode on it ?
very well explained
Thank you so much. I was able to create a program to generate a barcode
Great videos hope to see more
